She sounds like Whoopi!


Whoopi!

Glad somebody else picked up on this. Watching her scenes in OITNB, I closed my eyes; the sonic resemblance is uncanny at times!

Helga, I'm not mad at you; I'm mad at the dirt.

When I first met her, she kind of looked like Whoopi, too. She had the same dreadlocks and demeanor. She was very impressive. She was even more impressive when she transformed into a graceful, beautiful goddess in the show we worked on.

She doesn't always sound like Whoopi, though. Her real voice is a little higher pitch. IRL, she's nothing like Crazy Eyes.

It's funny because I thought that watching OITNB, but when I saw an interview with her, her voice is very different than Suzanne's.

True, I can see an Oscar win in her future too. She's got what it takes alright. 
